St. Paul's Lutheran Chut eh can be
much congratulation on being able to
count among their trustees so faith
ful and careful a man as Louis Gru
mei". Yesterday, when I paid off (In
Seranton) the amount due on a certain
mortgage on our chutch to tho Welsh
Baptist Association, ho took the pains,
In the midst of his pressing court du
ties, to scrutinize carefully the quali
fications of the officer pretending to
represent said corporation to receive
payment.
In such matters tho greatest pre
caution is to bo taken, and we feel
much obliged to Lewis Oramer, who
lias safely bandied our congregation
through the Scylln and Chnrybdls of
this kind of secular elitneh mutter.

Ing "tried out" on the Ice, they started
for home. It was very cold on tho
home wind trip and when they reached
the cozy hotel ot Joe Scheck they de
cided to get out of thd cutter and lim
ber up beside tho stove.
The warm atmosphere of tho Hill
side house was conducive to a longer
stay than at first contemplated. After
Home reminiscences lnsphed by the ttf- '
ternoon's sport hud been resurrected
the two Fell townshlppera started out
to resume their Journey homeward. Tho
horse wasn't where he had been left
lied nnd there wore no Indications of
a runaway, ho they surmised that
someono must have eloped with It.
Iluttonlng their overcoats closely
they started for their long trip to this
city to look up the missing equine. On
Dundnff stieet a citizen told them he
had heen n "cop" taking a rig to the
central city a short time before. They
made n complete Inventory of all tho

horse was seen driving blip yesterday

ered the animal could not bo learned.

GOV. G. W, ATKINSON, OF WEST VIRGINIA.
Charleston, W. Va., March 0, 1898.
The Poruna Medicine Co., Columbus, Ohio :
Gentlemen" I can rocommond your preparation, Peruna, m a tonic.
Its reputation as a euro for catarrh is excellent, it having been used by a
number of people known to me with tha very best results." Q. W.
Atkinson.
FULLY fifty per cent, of the people nf the United States arc buffering
from catutrh In some degree or phase. There Is scarcely a home In
the land entirely free from this tl lense. Ono or more members of
every household either has catarrh or some other ailment directly de
pendent upon catarrh. Catrinh Is tapidly becoming a national scourge. It
existence In tho system complicates and intensifies any ailment a person
may happen to have. With these alarming facts comes the encouraging
news thai Pel una 'ures catanli. 1 uk-s it
permanently: cures It by eradicating It en-
, tliely from the system.
I Peruna Is an Intermit systemlo temedy
reaching the disease at Its fountain-head. It
cures catarrh of the bead, lungs, stomach, liver,
kidneys, or catarrh of any other organ of the
j body.
I Mr. F. A. Dixon, ot Sin East Tenth ntretet,
I Kansas City, Mo., editor of the Missouri depart-

I ter to Dr. Ilartinnu, says:
'Peiinlt ine tu express to you my appre
ciation of the benefits that I have derived from
using Peruna lit my family.
"Being n man of limited means, I have
had to be careful not to spend any more money
than wns neeesiry on doctor bills. Some two
ycai.s ago I began using Peruna in my fam
ily ns a family doctor, and I have bein highly
plcnend wllh the ic-ults.
"My wife has used It for catarrh and ex
perienced groat relief. My little girl hns been
sick a number of times, and when we m'cil
your medicine It proved a success. I hae
used It myself seveial times and consider It a
verv valuable medicine. ,
Sneaking fiom per'-onol observation, I con
sider it a good Investment to keep It in niv noire, nnd believe every man
who desires to relieve suffering, and at the sane' time sao money, should
Investigate th" r-il meiits of your Peruna ai "tft medicines." F. A.
